CR-5000 Physical Design

Intuitive layout tools for complex PCB design challengesCR-5000 includes intuitive layout tools, fully integrated with system design and analysis as well as layout verification, enabling an interactive work flow between schematic entry and board layout. The powerful placement and routing tools of CR-5000 are optimised for speed and accuracy, tackling today’s complex PCB design challenges.

Layout, Placement & RoutingCR-5000 Board Designer facilitates the intelligent and smooth development of printed circuit boards, allowing the designer to quickly and easily create, re-use or adapt designs. Everyday tasks are made intuitive and efficient for complex placement patterns, speeding up the most challenging implementations. Advanced interactive placement and routing tools are available – as well as fast automatic concurrent placement and automatic routing, capable of simultaneously routing multiple nets.

Design Re-UseCR-5000 also supports design re-use, allowing engineers to re-utilise proven and tested logical circuits, as well as layouts, from previous projects.

Library ToolsCR-5000 Components Manager facilitates parts library management for electronic design. Standard symbols and components can be obtained from the library installed with CR-5000, and rapid creation of corporate-specific parts can be generated through the symbol and component wizards available in Components Manager.

DocumentationCR-5000 provides a documentation system for creating PDF documents configured to company requirements, with automatically generated bookmarks/hyperlinks for all parts.
